Erica; Happy Birthday & thanks for leaving love on my Christmas List layout.
Did you get your avatar to come up? Have you seen the tutorial at http://scrapgirls.com.ipbhost.com/index.php?app=blog&module=display&section=blog&blogid=271&showentry=1539

I wish your avatar would show up too - I don't remember what you look like - you did have one before I think - didn't you? I might even be able to help with that - we NEED your picture so we know what our amazing designer looks like!

Hi Erica! Thank you for LSL on my Grattitude LO! :-) It took me a long time to do those framed photos, so I really appreciate that you noticed. It took me close to a week to get the LO done because I'm still so new to this and learning something everytime I make something. :-)

Erica, Loved your Designer's Life muse in today's newsletter! My oldest is 10 years old, and there are days that I still feel the way you described. That mourning for the loss of precious alone time. Though I wouldn't change a thing about my life now, sometimes I miss the peaceful solitude that was so much a part of me. Thanks for sharing your story!
